Hired on Thumbtack

I had a special request of Brent to give my wife a 2-hr crash course in drumming as a birthday present to fulfill a childhood wish. Brent assessed my wife's skill level and then proceeded to show her some techniques on the snare and then the drum set. My wife had a fabulous time playing different patterns on the drum set along with trying various sticks, mallets, brushes, etc.

Brent is a dedicated musician with a heart of gold. His vast knowledge of music theory and composition was indispensable in helping me along my own musical journey. His technical ability is not to be trifled with. I would not be the musician I am today without him

Brent has been teaching my 7 year old son drums for 6 months. I am delighted with how he works at the best pace to motivate him every step of the way. Here I he is keeping the beat to Hotel California!.

Brent has been a great coach for our 9 year old son. He’s teaching in a friendly way that is both structured and disciplined but also fun and encouraging. My son is professing really well, he’s enjoying the classes and practicing on his own in his spare time based on the homework that Brent gives him. Overall, we’re having a great experience and I’m recommending Brent to my friends and other parents.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
The first lesson is $30 for 30 minutes
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The first lesson always starts with getting to know each other. It's important for me to get a good sense of your musical ability so we can develop a healthy practice routine. I like to know what kinds of music you listen to, and who your musical heroes are. If you are a completely new to music lessons, that’s ok.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been playing drums and piano since I was 15. I studied jazz performance at Sonoma State University, and music education at Cal State East Bay. I play several different styles of music, and perform in various bands for a living
